When you're stuck, or curious

The lessons teach each idea once. These pages are for the second pass: reviewing before a lab, finding out why a test fails, looking up a word, or going further than the course does.

Stuck on a test or the lab

1. Debugging your compilerRead a failure, shrink it, compare with the oracle, and the usual suspects each week
2. 1Week 1 test guideEvery test: what it checks, and the bugs known to fail it
3. 2Week 2 test guideMemory, ordering, bounds, and the render grader
4. 3Week 3 test guideLoops, load placement, matmul and conv
5. 4Week 4 test guideVectors, reduce, rangeify, size limits
6. 5Week 5 test guideMovement ops at any rank

Reviewing a week

Each study guide has a one-page recap, a cheat sheet, the mistakes people make most, a step-by-step walk through the lab, and a self-check. The quiz review puts a week's quizzes on one page, or only the ones you missed.
